What do RDS, Cloud, KARL STORZ, and SAP TechEd && d-code 2014 have in common? Lots!

It's that time of year again. SAP TechEd && d-code is just around the corner (next week!) and is the place to be for IT architects, administrators, and developers to learn the latest on all things SAP. For those of you who are able to attend, feel free to stop by the Rapid Deployment Solutions (RDS) pod and chat with us on the showroom floor. Interested in the Cloud or in a delightful user experience? We are here to help you get started quickly!

Speaking of the Cloud, be sure to check out the story of how KARL STORZ used the SAP ERP HCM Integration to SuccessFactors RDS to implement a "hybrid" scenario so they could take advantage of the latest Cloud solutions while still leveraging their existing on-premise ERP system. If you are interested in learning more, Coeus Consulting, the partner that worked with KARL STORZ on this implementation, will also be at TechEd && d-code to discuss their experience working with rapid-deployment solutions.

Incidentally, the package they chose for their scenario is just one of many options. One easy way to think about your options (in the context of HR solutions) is to determine if you want to get started with a new approach to core HR (i.e., SuccessFactors), integrate a new approach with an existing system (what KARL STORZ did), or perhaps migrate from your current system to a new system. We just so happen to have a rapid-deployment solution for each of those scenarios (listed below in that order):

We hope to see you in Las Vegas next week and answer any questions you might have! In addition to the Rapid Deployment Solutions pod, you can also catch the RDS team at the “Fly to Cloud Nine ‘till 9” event on Tuesday night where Bjoern Goerke and Elvira Wallis will be providing executive keynotes, and we’ll have expert tables and interactive games with prizes over martinis and refreshments. If you’re going, look me up (I'll be at the UX table).
